Patent number: 11960800Abstract: A system including one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computing instructions that, when executed on the one or more processors, perform certain acts. The acts can include obtaining an original load design for loading a trailer to deliver stacks of pallets to physical stores. The load design specifies a respective floor spot assignment for each of the stacks. The original load design satisfies center-of-gravity constraints. The acts also can include generating fluid groups of the stacks to form an initial fluid grouping. The acts additionally can include determining that the fluid groups do not collectively satisfy the center-of-gravity constraints. The acts further can include until the fluid groups collectively satisfy the center-of-gravity constraints, repeatedly determining one or more infeasible groups from the fluid groups, and adjusting at least one of the one or more infeasible groups to update the fluid groups.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: WALMART APOLLO, LLCInventors: Ou Sun, Minghui Liu, Jing Huang, Mingang Fu, Joseph Wayne Hendricks, Jamie Lee Hamilton

Publication number: 20210221884Abstract: The present invention is directed to antagonistic antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof having binding specificity for PACAP. These antibodies inhibit, block or neutralize at least one biological effect associated with PACAP, e.g., vasodilation. In exemplary embodiments these antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof may comprise specific VH, VL, and CDR polypeptides described herein. In some embodiments these antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof bind to and/or compete for binding to specific epitope(s) on human PACAP. The invention is further directed to using these antagonistic anti-PACAP antibodies, and binding fragments thereof, for the diagnosis, assessment, and treatment of diseases and disorders associated with PACAP and conditions where antagonism of PACAP-related activities, such as vasodilation, mast cell degranulation, and/or neuronal activation, are therapeutically beneficial, e.g., headache and migraine indications.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 8, 2019Publication date: July 22, 2021Inventors: Maria-Cristina LOOMIS, Leon F.

Patent number: 10775626Abstract: A head worn display device is disclosed. Each of two display assemblies includes a first waveguide with a field of view and a second waveguide with a field of view, where the fields of view are overlapped to generate a combined field of view for each of the display assemblies. Each of the display assemblies further includes a first collimator and a second collimator, where each collimator is configured to direct illumination through the waveguide stack along a single axis, and where each collimator is rotated a select angle to offset the combined field of view to merge collimator pupils and generate a seamless total field of view for each of the display assemblies. Each of the display assemblies are rotated a select angle to offset the respective total fields of view along the single axis and generate a seamless wide field of view for the head worn display device.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2019Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Assignee: Rockwell Collins, Inc.Inventors: Eric P.

Publication number: 20020097395Abstract: A LCD test system is provided for use in a high volume production environment. An automated test is performed that tests each LCD and provides a pass/fail indication. The automated test includes an image-sticking test that drives the test image based on a control voltage that corresponds to a maximum rate of change of brightness. The control voltage is determined by differentiating an electro-optic curve. The brightness difference between the test image and another test image is compared to predetermined threshold. The other test image may be a gray scale test. Alternatively, the image-sticking test may integrate brightness levels of odd and even frames, compare these results to predetermined thresholds. The test includes a color uniformity test in which average differences in peak reflectance and peak frequency within sections of the LCD are compared to predetermined thresholds for the pass/fall indication. The test includes a spatial distribution of defects test.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2001Publication date: July 25, 2002Inventors: Peter Smith, Dan Hoffman, Matthias Pfeiffer, Andrew R.
